Essential amino acid. Lysine is heat sensitive and is not present in processed foods. It helps regulate the pineal gland, mammary glands, and ovaries. Lysine is important for growth and bone development, promotes calcium absorption1, maintains nitrogen balances, ability to fight viral infections such as the herpes simplex virus, aids in the production of antibodies, hormones and collagen, and helps to build muscle tissue.

Solgar’s L-Lysine Vegetable Capsules are free of corn, yeast, wheat, soy and dairy products and are formulated without the use of preservatives, artificial flavors or colors.

Long chains of molecularly bonded individual amino acids form protein. The body must first break these molecular (pepetide) bonds for amino acid absorption to take place. Solgar's free form amino acids are already in their simplest form (no peptide bonds) and can be readily absorbed into the bloodstream.
